Today, we bring you news from the upcoming 1.62 update for Euro Truck Simulator 2. As part of this update, we will be introducing new truck garage models across the map!
We already gave the truck garages in American Truck Simulator a refresh with the 1.58 update, and now it is time to give them the same treatment in Euro Truck Simulator 2. As you know, we are gradually reworking older areas of the base map, with the Benelux rework being the latest addition, while the rework for United Kingdom is currently underway. Garages are an important part of the map as well, so after many years, we felt it was time to bring them up to date and better align them with the newer areas of the game.
With the release of 1.62, these new garage models will be introduced across the entire base map as well as all of the map DLCs. This means that wherever your journeys take you, you can look forward to seeing these refreshed garages along the way.
Garages are also an important part of the truck driving experience. They are not only where you store your trucks and manage your drivers, but also a reflection of your growing company. From the smaller garages to the larger ones, we wanted to make them feel like places you would be happy to return to as your business grows.
The new garages feature updated visuals both inside and out, with greater attention to detail throughout. Our goal was to make them feel more modern and immersive, which should make the process of upgrading your garage feel more rewarding.
Of course, we also had to keep performance in mind. Bringing these new garages to the game while keeping their performance cost in check compared to the older models created many years ago was no small task, but we hope to have found the right balance between improving visuals and not increasing the toll on performance.
With these changes, we hope the reworked garages will feel like a more natural and enjoyable part of your journeys. They are another step in bringing older parts of the game up to today's standards, and we look forward to continuing to refine the world of Euro Truck Simulator 2 in future updates.
